Definitions
- the present invention relates to a peeling machine for batchwise peeling of vegetable products.
- Peeling machines for peeling vegetable products and the like are adapted either for batchwise peeling of the vegetable products or for peeling the vegetable products while these are fed through a chamber in the peeling machine from a charging end to a discharging end of the peeling machine.
- the peeling machine according to the present invention is adapted for batchwise peeling of vegetable products.
- a previously known peeling machine for batchwise peeling of vegetable products for example the peeling machine shown and described in EP-A-0 422 627, comprises a container in which the vegetable products are placed. In the container there are provided peeling means for removing the peel of the vegetable products while there are established a relative movement and an engagement between the vegetable products and the peeling means.
- the bottom of the container for receiving the vegetable products is at least partially constituted by a number of rotatable peeling rollers which are positioned parallel to each other and which constitute the peeling means of the peeling machine.
- the peeling machine for batchwise peeling of the kind described above provides for an efficient and uniform peeling of the vegetable products but the previously known machine for batchwise peeling of vegetable products is unfavourable in the respect that it is difficult and complicated to adapt the capacity of the peeling machine to different requirements appearing for example as a consequence of the desired peeling of different types of vegetables.
- the peeling machine is characterized in that the peeling machine comprises two or more containers provided with peeling means and intended for successive use and that the peeling machine is adapted for transferring the vegetable products from one container to a following container in a direction transversely of the longitudinal direction of the peeling rollers.
- a peeling machine it is possible in a simple way to change the capacity of the peeling machine by providing the peeling machine with the desired number of containers provided with peeling means and adapted to be used successively.
- the first container can be adapted for coarse peeling while the following container or containers is or are intended for successively finer peeling of the vegetable products.
- the last container in the succession of containers can be adapted for fine peeling with water and/or knife peeling.
- the transfer of the vegetable products between the successive containers can be provided in a simple way by the fact that the containers are dischargable by tipping.
- the peeling rollers are adapted to be rotated in the same direction during the peeling operation so that the peripheries of the rollers at the surface forming the bottom of the container move from a first side of a container towards the opposite side of the container. It is preferred that the peeling rollers are adapted to contribute to discharging of the containers by being rotated in an opposite rotational direction from the rotational direction during the peeling operation and that the container is provided with a discharge door at the first side of the container.
- At least a section of the part of the bottom of the container which is constituted by the peeling rollers forms a concavely curved surface, which is of for example elliptic shape.
- the peeling rollers can adjacent one side of the container be positioned in a horizontal plane taking a successively higher level in a concavely curved surface in the direction of the opposite side of the container.
- the curved surface is of elliptic shape the curved surface may constitute about a fourth of an ellipse with the largest radius of curvature positioned at one side of the container with substantially horizontal orientation and the smallest radius of curvature positioned at the opposite side of the container with substantially vertical orientation.
- the peeling rollers have at their surfaces cutting elements, for example consisting of cutting grits of carborundum provided as a coating on the rollers.
- the cutting elements on one or more of the rollers can be provided within surface portions which are separated from each other and between which there are provided smooth and preferably glossy surface portions of the rollers. This provides for a substantially improved removal of peel remains from the rollers while the edges between the surface portion provided with cutting element and the glossy surface portions of the rollers can be used for providing the vegetable products with a pattern of motion promoting the peeling of the vegetable products.
- Fig. 1 is a side view of a container included in a peeling machine for batchwise peeling according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a plan view of the container shown in Fig. 1.
- Fig. 3 is a schematic section of the container according to Figs. 1 and 2 on line III-III of Fig. 1.
- Figs. 4a and 4b are schematic sections of a peeling machine comprising two containers of the kind shown in Figs. 1 - 3 in operative position and discharging position, respectively.
- Fig. 5 is a plan view of three peeling rollers of a peeling machine according to the invention.
- the peeling machine according to the invention is adapted for peeling vegetable products, preferably potatoes.
- the peeling machine is of the type for batchwise peeling, i.e. the peeling machine is supplied with a certain amount of unpeeled products, whereupon the peeling operation is conducted and the peeled product is removed from the peeling machine after which a new batch of unpeeled products is supplied to the peeling machine and so on.
- the peeling machine comprises two or more containers provided with peeling means and intended for successive use, the peeling machine being adapted for transferring the vegetable products from one container to a following container in a director transversely of the longitudinal direction of the peeling rollers.
- Each of the containers constituting the peeling machine according to the invention is built on a frame consisting of longitudinal beams 2, posts 4, and conventional structural members.
- the frame supports a container 6 comprising a rear wall 8, a front wall 10 and side walls 12.
- the bottom of the container 6 is constituted by six parallel rollers 14 which at their end portions are rotatably journalled in the frame outside the side wall 12 of the container 6.
- each container 6 supports a front collector plate 16 and a rear collector plate 18, the front collector plate 16 being connected with the front wall 10 and the rear collector plate 18 being connected with the rear wall 8.
- the collector plates 16 and 18 extend obliquely inwardly beneath the rollers. In the lateral direction the collector plates 16 and 18 extend somewhat outside the side walls 12.
- the collector plates 16 and 18 have the object of guiding waste material to a collector vessel or the like positioned below the container.
- the front wall 10 of the container 6 has at its upper edge a portion 20 angled in forward direction and laterally projecting portions 22 in order to facilitate the supply of potatoes to the containers 6.
- the rollers 14 are journalled in the frame of each container 6 in such a way that the bottom of the container provided by the rollers will form a concavely curved surface having its lower edge at the front wall 10 of the container and its highest edge at the rear wall 8 thereof.
- the two rollers 14 being positioned adjacent the front wall 10 are journalled on the same height while the successive rollers are journalled with an increasing high difference in relation to the previous roller so that the radius of curvature of the bottom of the containers will decrease from the front wall 10 towards the rear wall 8.
- the bottom surface formed by the rollers is of substantially vertical orientation.
- the concavely curved surface of the bottom corresponds to the shape of a fourth of an ellipse but it is of course possible to adapt the curvature in a desired way with regard to the product to be peeled and so on.
- rollers 14 At one end the rollers 14 are provided with pulleys 24 which through V-belts, a split coupling 26 and a variator 28 are driven by an electric motor 30.
- the rollers are provided with a coating consisting of cutting carborundum grits. These carborundum grits constitute the peeling means of the peeling machine and cut or grind away the peel of the potatoes when the rollers are rotated.
- the rotational direction of all rollers 14 is such that the surfaces of the rollers, which form the bottom of the container 6 move away from the front wall 10 towards the rear wall 8.
- a suitable charge weight for potatoes is 80 - 100 kg.
- the rotational speed of the peeling rollers 14 is increased by means of the variator 28 to a suitable value, the potatoes being thereby subjected to the influence of the carborundum grits of the peeling rollers 14 which provides that the peel of the potatoes are cut or ground away at the same time as the potatoes circulate from the front wall 10 of the container up to the highest roller at the rear wall 8 from which the potatoes are thrown back to the front wall 10 of the container.
- the peel remainders fall down to the bottom of the containers below the rollers 14 and are directed to some kind of suitable collecting vessel or other collecting place by means of the collector plates 16 and 18.
- the peeled potatoes are discharged from the container 6 to a following container.
- This can be provided by tipping the container 6 which can be provided in respect of an axis, not shown, extending parallel to the rollers 14 in the vicinity of the upper edge of the rear wall 8.
- the discharging can be accomplished by providing the front wall 10 of the container with an openable door (not shown). After the door has been opened the container can be emptied by rotating the rollers 14 in the opposite direction of rotation in relation to the direction of rotation used for the peeling.
- the machine for batchwise peeling comprises two or more containers of the kind shown in Figs. 1 - 3.
- the peeling machine can consist of two containers 32 and 34, each container being constructed in the same way as the container according to Figs. 1 - 3.
- the peeling operation is hereby divided into two phases, in which the first phase which can consist of a coarse peeling without water is conducted in the container 32. After the first phase has been completed the potatoes are tipped over to the container 34 as shown in Fig. 4b, whereupon the final peeling which is constituted by a fine peeling and can be conducted with the addition of water is conducted in the container 34. It is realized that the peeling device according to Figs.
- the peeling machine can be constructed so as to include a desired number of containers so that the peeling operation can be conducted in the most suitable way.
- Fig. 5 there is shown a plan view of three peeling rollers 36, 38 and 40 in a modified embodiment of a peeling device according to the invention.
- Conventional peeling rollers can be provided by helically winding the smooth cylinder surface of the rollers by means of a strip coated with carborundum, which is bound to the surface of the roller by means of a two component binding agent.
- the strip is wound with the edges close to each other so that the roller obtains the appearance of the roller 38 in Fig. 5.
- the carborundum strip is designated with reference numeral 42 while the edges of the strip engaging each other are designated with reference numeral 44.
- the carborundum coating of the peeling rollers are positioned within surface portions separated from each other and between which smooth and preferably glossy surface portions of the rollers are provided.
- the carborundum strip 42 is wound in opposite directions on the rollers 36 and 40 so that the surface portions 46 will form on the rollers a right helix and a left helix, respectively.
- the smooth surface portions 46 between the carborundum coating contribute to the action of subjecting the potatoes to movements during the peeling operation contributing to the efficiency and uniformity of the peeling.
- the smooth surface portions 46 also contribute to the efficient removal of the peel remainders from the rollers.
- a peeling machine according to the invention can in a desired way be constructed of two or more containers of the kind shown in Figs. 1 - 3 and can be provided with different types of peeling rollers according to the principles shown in Fig. 5.
